Summary
What does this car say about you?
I'm a fool for buying one.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Hardly seen it, always being repaired. Don't think they will be buying one.
Would you buy this car again and why?
No, will avoid the brand. The car is ridiculously unreliable. The main dealer just makes up numbers, invoices for repairs are incomprehensible. £10,000 for a recon engine, yikes!
What are you likely to buy next?
Toyota Land Cruiser, will never buy a British car ever again.
